Interesting fact

The 1 Rupee coin from Sri Lanka features a unique design that showcases the country's rich cultural heritage. On one side of the coin, you'll find an image of a dhow, a traditional Arabian sailing vessel, which reflects Sri Lanka's maritime history and trade connections with the Middle East. On the other side, you'll find a rendering of the sacred Bo Tree, which is a symbol of Buddhism and a significant part of Sri Lankan culture. This coin is a great example of how currency can serve as a representation of a country's history, culture, and values.
